My Project

Speed stacking cups are a fun alternative to traditional sports where students can practice hand-eye coordination and develop fine motor skills. Students can choose to speed stack cups competitively with others or practice independently on their own speed stacking goals.

Speed stacking cups are fun, add variety to our PE curriculum, can be used in a variety of ways, and are accessible and engaging for nearly ALL of my students!

These cups allow for ALL of our students to participate, including students who may be injured and not able to participate in a more active and vigorous activity as well as students with special needs.

In PE class, we work on sportsmanship, teamwork, how to be a good teammate and classmate, how practice helps us to improve our skills, and cooperation. Speed stacking cups help us build on all of these skills!
